Location of University of Naples Federico II
The Master's Degree in Robotics and Intelligent Systems (RIS) is targeted at graduates in scientific fields. It aims to train professionals who will be able to design, integrate, plan and manage robotic devices and intelligent systems.
During the course, participants will deepen their knowledge of engineering methodologies and technologies in controls, computers, electronics and mechanics. They will also acquire knowledge about logics, cybernetics, artificial intelligence and cognitive science within a truly interdisciplinary framework.
The Master's graduates will aspire to cover professional roles both in companies dealing with robotics and automation, and in all areas such as medicine and health, safety and security, transportation, entertainment and home applications, where innovation is pursued through the introduction and integration of robots and intelligent systems.
The Master's will be taught entirely in English, with the aim of providing graduates with an authentic training for global oriented job placement, while attracting students from European and non-European countries.
The main goals of the Master's are:
* to disseminate the science of robotics and intelligent systems, through the assessment and transfer of technologies and multiple disciplines;
* to provide a high-quality, prestigious and attractive training programme for foreign students;
* to create a pool of resources for developing new ideas in a high-tech and innovative field;
* to offer sponsoring companies an opportunity to recruit high-potential human resources with specific skills in the area of robotics and intelligent systems;
* to offer the Master's graduates an opportunity to network with company management as well as with the main stakeholders in industry and research.
Contents
The Master's degree will be awarded to graduates who have earned all the 60 credits (crediti formativi universitari CFU) as outlined in the following programme:
Lectures: 40 CFU
Seminars: 4 CFU
Laboratories: 4 CFU
Internship at company: 10 CFU
Final thesis: 2 CFU
The training programme is a combination of three different activities: lectures, seminars, collaborative work.
Training through lectures provides students from different disciplines with a strong and common foundation of knowledge. This includes 8 courses of lectures, for a total of 320 hours with 80 hours practice.
Training through seminars, focusing on specific topics, will take place at regular intervals and will be delivered by Italian and international lecturers, researchers and company delegates with a strong scientific profile.
Collaborative training with tutoring takes place through practical activities. During that period, students develop projects in team being under the guidance of a tutor.
The internship allows students to successfully make the transition from education to industry, and completes and validates their training. This 250 hours activity takes place at Italian/foreign companies and research laboratories. At the end of the course students will have to present the final thesis, which in average requires 50 hours work.
